In this paper we investigate two related aspects of the formalization of open interaction systems: how to specify norms, and how to enforce them by means of sanctions. The problem...
We are designing a computational architecture for a "learning economy" based on personal software agents who represent users in a virtual society and assist them in find...
In this paper, we present a model of distributed parameter estimation in networks, where agents have access to partially informative measurements over time. Each agent faces a loca...
The concept of sequential two-sided search is widely used in partnerships formation applications in various domains. However, when considering the implementation of the method in M...
Negotiation is an important mechanism of coordination in multiagent systems. Contrary to early conceptualizations of negotiating agents, we believe that decisions regarding the neg...
